I'm Sarah and I have been making Irish pottery and homewares in my studios, a 250 year old stone grain store in Dundalk, Co Louth since 1999.My pottery & homewares have layers of messages created using patterns and text which subtly say little things people want to tell each other without having to say it out loud!Everyone wants to give a gift which makes people happy, little reminders of joy once known. So I impress text into the clay pieces - inspiring quotes, poetry and sentimental lyrics to tug on the heartstrings and make people smile.The patterns and text link memories and sentiment to modern functional forms. All this nostalgia transforms an everyday object into a special gift which will be cherished now and as an heirloom in the future.As modern shoppers provenance of the objects in our homes and combating wastefulness is at the heart of our decisions, I produce durable, ethical and meaningful alternatives to trendy mass-produced gifts.If this sounds like what you want, read on and see all the collections!
